In a statement issued on December 17, 2024, the Mahama Transition Team noted that during the second joint meeting held on Friday, December 13, 2024, both sides had agreed that such actions would require clearance from the joint Transition Team. 

However, the NPP government allegedly disregarded this agreement and proceeded unilaterally.  

The statement, signed by Felix Kwakye Ofosu, spokesperson for the Mahama Transition Team, stressed that any last-minute payments, appointments, or promotions—some of which are said to have been backdated—will be reversed by the new administration. 

He added that public officials responsible for these decisions could be held accountable through formal processes. 

The Transition Team also issued a strong warning to public officials, urging them to resist pressure from outgoing political actors.  

“All public officials are strongly advised to resist pressure from outgoing political actors to engage in these acts, as they could attract severe consequences when the new government takes office,” the statement read.  

The Mahama administration, set to assume office on January 7, 2025, has reiterated its commitment to ensuring a smooth and transparent transfer of power while addressing what it considers improper decisions taken at the eleventh hour.
